Currently, the NamedRegexPattern.Email only allows uppercase letters. It has been updated to allow lowercase letters as well. This fix will be available in the Oct. 29 release.
 
Workarounds:
  1. In your app, enter an uppercase email, e.g. ANY@GMAIL.COM.
  2. Override the email property to convert values to uppercase:

    public override string PersonalEmail {

      get { return base.PersonalEmail.ToUpper(); }

      set { base.PersonalEmail = value.ToUpper(); }

    }
  1. Create a new (corrected) email pattern and pass this into the RegexVerifier:

    #region Verification

 

    /// <summary>Get Verifiers.</summary>

    /// <param name="pVerifierProviderContext">Context in which these Verifiers are retrieved.</param>

    /// <returns>The verifiers.</returns>

    [VerifierProvider]

    public static IEnumerable<Verifier> GetVerifiers(Object pVerifierProviderContext) {

      List<Verifier> verifiers = new List<Verifier>();

 

      verifiers.Add(GetEmailAddressVerifier());

 

      return verifiers;

    }

 

    private static Verifier GetEmailAddressVerifier() {

      NamedRegexPattern emailPattern = new NamedRegexPattern("Email", @"\b[\w.%-]+@[\w.]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,4}\b");

      RegexVerifier v = new RegexVerifier(Descriptors.PersonalEmail, true, emailPattern);

      v.ExecutionModes = VerifierExecutionModes.OnPresetTriggers;

      return v;

    }

    #endregion

Any of the above should work, but #3 is perhaps the cleanest, and will require no change on your part when the next release comes out.

It still fails with that. Valid or not valid email. Then it doesn't let you out of the textbox.]]> Sat, 13 Oct 2007 10:22:08 -700 http://www.ideablade.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=492&PID=1615#1615 Email Validation : You shouldn&#039;t have to call... http://www.ideablade.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=492&PID=1611#1611 Author: eileenv

You shouldn't have to call AddTrigger since it is already added via the RegexVerifier constructor. Have you tried the following?
 
private static Verifier GetEmailAddressVerifier(PropertyDescriptor pEmailDescriptor)

    {

        RegexVerifier v = new RegexVerifier(pEmailDescriptor, true, NamedRegexPattern.Email);

        v.ExecutionModes = VerifierExecutionModes.OnPresetTriggers;

        return v;

       

    }

When I run the below validation on an Email address it always fails and then I can not leave the box :

RegexVerifier v = new RegexVerifier(Descriptors.EmailAddress, true, NamedRegexPattern.Email);

v.AddTrigger(pEmailDescriptor);

v.ExecutionModes = VerifierExecutionModes.InstanceAndOnPresetTriggers;

return v;

 
To try a different method, and try and trace the error a bit further, I did the below validation and got the following validation error: ((IdeaBlade.Verification.VerifierResults)(verify)).Verifier is null

private static VerifierResult ValidEmailCondition(Email pEmail, TriggerContext triggerContext, VerifierContext verifierContext)

{

RegexVerifier v = new RegexVerifier(Descriptors.EmailAddress, true, NamedRegexPattern.Email);

      VerifierResult verify = v.Verify(pEmail.EmailAddress, triggerContext, verifierContext);

      return verify;

       

    }

private static Verifier EmailAddressVerifier(PropertyDescriptor pEmailDescriptor)

{

string description = "Email address must in a valid email format.";

      DelegateVerifier<Email> verifier = new DelegateVerifier<Email>(description, ValidEmailCondition);

      verifier.ExecutionModes = VerifierExecutionModes.InstanceAndOnPresetTriggers;

      verifier.AddTrigger(pEmailDescriptor);

      return verifier;

}

Why is any email address always failing?
